Born in Romania in 1982, Maricica Irina Cornici suffered a great deal before her fatal real-life exorcism.
After her father died by suicide, her mother, who lived with alcohol dependency, abandoned her at the Barlad Children’s Home in rural Vaslui County. There, she was routinely abused by its administrators. After a few short years as an adult, she became possessed.
At least, that was the contention of her exorcists, while many others felt she was mentally ill. Released from the orphanage in 2001, she spent a few years as a housekeeper and hoped to move to Germany with a friend.
In 2005, she visited her friend at the Holy Trinity Monastery in the town of Tanacu to convince her to emigrate to Germany. She would never get there. By the end of June 2005, she was dead.
